I think the ghost replay takes up 998 blocks IIRC.

In all honesty the ideal time to have gotten this game would have been between 05-15. Thankfully, I got most of the heavy hitters during that time, and more or less traded them for other heavy hitters over the last 5 years. I own the PAL version of the game, but my biggest regret during my Saturn collecting career was turning down the NTSC version when it was going for around $300. I wrongfully assumed it was always going to hover around that mark. Now I have to accept I've missed the boat as it goes for $1k+. Even if I tried to trade one of my MKR's for it. I'd probably have to throw in an extra $200-400 to seal the deal.

Yes, there's no way to access the saves ingame. Other than from the internal memory or memory cart.

So it's effectively going to cost £300 which is extortionate for what it is, and that's without knowing whether it will work without any hitches. I do agree about the price but not so fair to say about compatibility. Beta units were sent out ~6 months ago and most said it worked perfectly with the exception with a few games. Has there been any confirmation of MPEG emulation with the Satiator? My main issue is how it's going to handle multi-disc games, as well as games that may have issues in general.

You don't have to buy the first batches if you have a problem with the price. More will be made where prices will subsequently drop.

The only SNK game (not developed by SDK but was a NeoGeo game and published by them) I have for Saturn is Twinkle Star Sprites and it's excellent - I can recommend that one. Bought it a LONG time ago when prices weren't silly. When you complete the game in 1 player mode you unlock an option to toggle slowdown - so I presume the original on NeoGeo had that. It's really all about 2 player mode though. It you are only going to play in 1P then it's probably not worth the money. Most NeoGeo games only gave you difficulty options and maybe how many lives per credit. I believe the Saturn games were based off of NeoGeo CD ports, which sometimes contained extras.

Waku Waku 7 is the only bad game, which is a shame, because the original Neo Geo game is actually decent.

From what I've heard it should be getting released by the end of the year. Not exactly sure what the cost is going to be.

The reason prices have gone is due to people getting stimulus cheques, and evidently many didn't need them. As a result of having free time and money. Its put increased demand on the retro game market. I like you will be curious to see what happens when everything has normalised by this time next year. Will the people who bought these games in the last few months be dumping them back in the not too distant future? I haven't been doing a great deal of buying in recent times; I've mostly been selling.

Sadly those who turned down this game, because they didn't want to pay the £150 price tag a few years ago will be kicking themselves now. I've been wanting to buy a better conditioned copy, but can't get one for <£300.

Had a look yesterday at what the prices were and noticed not only are copies going for more than $1k, but they doubled in a month Curious to know if there's been some kind of market manipulation or if this has any kind of legs to it. I actually have 3 copies of it, as can be seen here, but no intention of selling any of them.

Have you tried it with the steering wheel?

Bit surprised, because I received this today. Just your solid middle of the road shmup.

How safe is that website to use? Is there any recourse a buyer would have like they would with using Paypal?
